Result:
LOSS

The last two games of the series have gone UNDER, including Game 3, which went into overtime. The Celtics and 76ers combined to score 90 points in the first half in Game 4 on Monday and Philadelphia shot only 40.4 percent for the game and Boston wasn't much better at 41.3 percent. The Celtics don't want to take the series back to Philly and will come out strong on the defensive end from the start. The 76ers made only 7-of-26 from three-point range on Monday and both teams have held opponents to nearly 44.0 percent shooting on the season. The posted total is nearly the same as Game 4, but expect an even a better performance defensively coming out of the gate. The 76ers have gone UNDER four straight with one day of rest. Play the first half to stay UNDER.
